Could I put a 510 rear end on my 1971 521 Datsun pickup ?

Yea that's the one and its sitting on top of a 4 speed manual transmission bracket.when I put the transmission back in,and then the mounting bracket their was barely any space in between them.the control arm up top was not clearing in the cab. So jacked up the transmission and put the automatic transmission mount back in.i don't know how to post pictures off my phone

Thanks everyone. I wanna soak the adjustment assembly in brake fluid over night then I'll try your method dat521gatherer

And I need the lock plate for the adjustment assembly or as u call it the star wheel?would you know how I could get ahold of that?

Is their something I can do if the star wheel or adjustment peace is stuck?

Guess the problem was the driver haha Thanks guys

It was working and I was happy... but my clutch went out,and I just don't want to have to replace it again if that was the reason for it going out. How do I post a picture? And thank you for replying king rat
